Knapp's Restaurant

Following PT, after a 2 week hiatus because my PT was out of town, and I needed to see the orthopedic surgeon for another follow up, it was off to breakfast. I grew up in the north end of Tacoma and spent a lot of time in what is now called The Proctor District. It was time to give Knapp’s a visit. As you can see, Knapp’s has been in business since 1938. The restaurant is huge with a full lounge, 2 dining and a large banquet area. It has been updated since the last time I ate there, and the tables, chairs and booths have been updated as well. There was only person working. While not full, she had enough to keep her busy, so she wasn’t able to get to us right away. Our coffee arrived at the table and was cold. It took a few minutes to track her down to request hot coffee. She made

What a great place!! Lived here all my life and have never been to Knapp's!! It did not disappoint and we will definitely be back!! Friendliest staff and our meals were delicious!! Highly recommend!!

I've been coming to Knapp's for about 30ish years. Came here when I was in high school at Wilson high School a bunch. Since we own a business in the same building, two doors over, our family eats here a lot now. I'm glad to see it's actually kept its quality. Prices aren't too bad and the staff is friendly. They really turn the people out, while we were there. I think probably about 40 people got served and paid and left. Quite the spot. I'm glad to see it survived to all of the ups and downs of this country and economy. Glad to see them still representing the 253.

Reminds me of yesteryear, good ole family restaurant ! Cozy for sure , booth sitting, a single 7am waitress bright and ready to serve ! Good food , a little dissapointed that english muffins are used instead of biscuits and the sausage gravy was actually cold ? The rest of the meal was quite delicious and a hot chocolate or two w/ whipped cream was a delight ! Knapps street front location is impossible to miss yet either because of window tinting, dim interior lights they never appear to be open ? And they always are.

Stop by for a late lunch this afternoon, had a pair of wonderful clubhouse sandwiches. The turkey is slow roasted and the sandwich is perfect. It's been a few years but I've been eating clubhouse sandwiches at Knapps for over 30 years. I highly recommend you treat yourself!! There was enough left over for dinner this evening. All of the staff were attentive and wonderful as well.
